Hush baby, everything is going to be okay
Close your eyes and let the tears fall
Clench your teeth and hold your breath
Then let it all out, scream into your pillow.

Feel everything right now
Everything that everyone tried to make you forget
Because no matter how far down you burry the chaos today,
Sure as daylight, one day it will all re-surface and you will feel it.
Feel it. Accept it. Don't let anyone tell you to move past it. You have to live with it, they don't.

You found a home inside me
You buried your soul inside me without permission
And it was so cruel of you
To infest my brain,
To take over my life the way you have.
Go away already!

Please don't tell the world my secrets
I know you can read my thoughts
I know you understand my pain
And know the battles that I have fought.
You know I'm weary of this
And that I don't trust men
Yet you persist and insist
That you are nothing like the rest of them.
Please don't run away with my heart
And give yours to another
Please do not build a foundation of lies for us
That one day I must uncover.
Why are you so kind to me?
What do you see in me that the rest have missed?
Why do you not take someone else with less issues?
What about me has you interested?
Please don't tell the world these emotions I have
Please just keep them to yourself
And please don't try to save me
Because I do not need your help.

They called her a Monster
And she thought that title suited her well.
Sometimes it's easier to be as terrible as they make you out to be.

Is there a liquor strong enough to fix me
Strong enough to make me forget who you are
Forget your name.
Maybe if I drink enough, the memory of you will come out with all this food I had earlier today.
Is there a liquor that tastes better than your kiss
Feels better than your arms
I've searched many bottles and have yet to find this liquor that people say mends their pain.

You seem to be the only one I can't stand
The only one I can't forget
I bang my head against the wall
Hoping the memory of you will fall out of it

You seem the be the only one
That I just can't shake
I drown myself in tears and liquor
Until I finally numb this heartbreak

But in my dreams you remain
These feelings never die
Every day I fight to neglect
This void you left behind

Man down, man down
Get your weapons, hit the ground
Terror and madness stretch from town to town
Escape the ****** streets, run from the sound.
